FlightAware question

Why does the plane turn pink over the Atlantic? Is it due to lack of a signature? DAL0085 is the flight number.

I think position is extrapolated when it gets far enough out over ocean

FWIW I find FlightRadar24 more useful

Probably not good enough ADSB coverage over the ocean.

Ground based radar only goes so far. It’s a projected image based on estimates.

I've done quite a few North Atlantic crossings and have always been aware of breasts

with ADS-C you're damn near in radar contact
satellites help too

Maritime law. Any vessel over open waters must be female.

This may be a dumb question, but are you always in contact with an ATC? Are there any dead spots out there?
